Children's playground148 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This County Armagh playground might have a magic mirror that shows you your future superhero self if you look.
Holy well: st. brigid's well in Parkmore or DemesneHoly Well: St. Brigid's Well · 492 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom St. Brigid's Well in Parkmore or Demesne is dedicated to the famous saint of healing and crafts, likely a spot for quiet reflection.
Armagh franciscan friary in Parkmore or DemesneArmagh Franciscan Friary · 506 ydExplorer Tom The Armagh Franciscan Friary. The monks probably had a laugh at how much trouble we have finding it now. Tell your mates you found it first before the tour buses do.
Explorer Tom Armagh Gaol in County Armagh smells like old regrets and cheap tea. Built in the 1780s, so the inmates probably played cards with no internet. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.
Armagh Rail Disaster Memorial SculptureMemorial · 950 ydExplorer Tom The Armagh Rail Disaster Memorial Sculpture stands as a quiet reminder of a tragic journey that started from Abbey Street long ago.
Church: the Toi; Church of the Elections in ArmaghChurch: the Toi · 974 ydExplorer Tom Church: the Toi, Church of the Elections in Armagh would win a county fair for best dressed. It’s an early Christian site with a name that sounds like a political rally. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.
Crimean CannonMemorial · 1139 ydExplorer Tom That Crimean Cannon on the Mall is a real time capsule. It was captured in 1854 and has been watching Armagh ever since.
Armagh County MuseumMuseum · 1158 ydExplorer Tom The neoclassical front of Armagh County Museum looks grand. I’m sure the exhibits inside are just as impressive and educational.
Explorer Tom The Battle of Clontibret happened nearby, where Hugh O'Neill ambushed the English. Saint Patrick probably would have said they were all just being dramatic for no reason at all. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.
Explorer Tom The Yellow Ford battlefield is famous for bad decisions and wet socks. Its favourite song is 'Oh, Why Did We Cross The River?' because nobody learned their lesson the first time around. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.
Macha's Curse: Navan FortLegend location · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Macha's Curse: Navan Fort tells of a king who made a pregnant goddess race his horses. She won and cursed Ulster's men for his cruelty. I do like a victory, but this king made the very worst choice of opponent. The fort's earthworks are real; the race belongs to legend.
Gosford CastleCastle · 5.7 miExplorer Tom Gosford Castle looks medieval but dates to 1819, designed by Thomas Hopper for the Acheson family as Ireland's largest private house at the time.
